"When You're alone"

Not long after you are stuck with aloneness, You are struck with complete loneliness. The loneliness that makes you cry out in the night Waking up in complete fright It is not the darkness, It is not even what’s in the night It is what is not there What is not starring or lusting I do not feel right, Like I am slowly busting through the seams My lips are sealed shut, but all I wish to do is scream I wish she still invaded my dreams I wish I could still persuade myself that I am okay That I am not so faded and jaded I wish I could just be completely isolated From this life where I am just trying to be motivated I am finding out how not to be dominated By this tragic society I am shut off Cut off To rebut, becomes an everyday affair Loneliness may be unfair But truly in its’ full extent, this life is just pure despair
